autocmd VimEnter * NERDTree autocmd BufEnter * NERDTreeMirror edit: The above command seems to open the new tab in NERDTree’s buffer. Instead use this as mentioned by wejrowski in the comment below : autocmd BufWinEnter * NERDTreeMirror
I’d do it like this: :%s/\v(foo|bar)/\={‘foo’:’bar’,’bar’:’foo’}[submatch(0)]/g But that’s too much typing, so I’d do this: function! Mirror(dict) for [key, value] in items(a:dict) let a:dict[value] = key endfor return a:dict endfunction function! S(number) return submatch(a:number) endfunction :%s/\v(foo|bar)/\=Mirror({‘foo’:’bar’})[S(0)]/g But that still requires typing foo and bar twice, so I’d do something like this: function! SwapWords(dict, …) let … Read more
Vim’s documentation is http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/. If you go for the HTML docs, you will find |reference_toc| More detailed information for all commands, which includes |index.txt| alphabetical index of all commands, which — due to an unfortunate quirk with the doc file named index.txt and linked as index.html — doesn’t actually lead to where you would expect … Read more
The problem with your problem is that a tab is not tied to a specific buffer. You can have 10 windows with as many buffers in a tab so “moving a tab into a split” doesn’t make much sense. What makes more sense is “show buffer x into a split” which can be done with … Read more

For more on why the command has such a bizarre name see this excellent description between the difference between map and noremap. Really good to know! To summarise that article, here’s a choice quote: One downside of the *map commands is the danger of recursing… Vim offers another set of mapping commands that will not … Read more
The gq command takes comments and indentation into account. I normally use V to visually select the lines (with k and j) and then press gq. The textwidth option is used to format the lines at the appropriate length. See :help gq for more information.
Here is a more updated info, there is a configuration to associate a file extension to a checker, in your .vimrc let g:syntastic_javascript_checkers = [‘jshint’] Also to get info about what’s going on run this command in vim :SyntasticInfo And you’ll get an output similar to this: Syntastic info for filetype: javascript Available checkers: gjslint … Read more
Yet another take on this. Using the example given in the Vim help for tabpagebuflist() to get a list of the buffers that appear in a tab or window. I have the below in my .vimrc function! DeleteInactiveBufs() “From tabpagebuflist() help, get a list of all buffers in all tabs let tablist = [] for … Read more
You have to look into the history of vi, the predecessor of Vim, for an explanation. A long time ago, when text editing had to be done with a keyboard and attached printer (called a terminal), there was no mouse, no display other than the paper, and therefore, little interactivity. Editing consisted of short, mnemonic … Read more
